Deep geological repositories are designed to isolate radioactive waste from the environment for long periods of time.

Waste storage facilities are designed to safely store waste until it can be treated or disposed of in an environmentally sound manner.

Hazardous waste storage facilities are designed to store waste that is considered hazardous due to its toxicity, corrosivity, ignitability, or reactivity.

Landfills are the most common method for storing municipal solid waste. They are designed to isolate waste from the environment and prevent contamination of soil and water.

Waste minimization aims to reduce the amount of waste generated at the source, thereby reducing the need for waste storage and disposal.

Recycling is the preferred method for storing electronic waste as it allows for the recovery of valuable materials and reduces the amount of waste sent to landfills.

Waste transfer stations are designed to temporarily store waste before it is transported to a disposal facility, such as a landfill or incinerator.

Autoclaving is a common method for storing medical waste as it effectively sterilizes the waste and reduces the risk of infection.

Waste segregation aims to separate different types of waste, such as recyclable materials, organic waste, and hazardous waste, for proper treatment and disposal.

Landfills are the most common method for storing construction and demolition waste as it is a cost-effective and convenient option.

Waste treatment facilities are designed to convert waste into energy, such as electricity or heat, through processes like incineration or anaerobic digestion.

Composting is a common method for storing agricultural waste as it converts organic matter into a nutrient-rich soil amendment.

Waste disposal aims to permanently remove waste from the environment through methods such as landfilling, incineration, or recycling.

Landfills are the most common method for storing industrial waste as it is a cost-effective and convenient option.

Waste recycling facilities are designed to recover valuable materials from waste, such as metals, plastics, and paper, for reuse or reprocessing.
